courage cast

Phil Mickelson shocked the golf world by winning the 103rd PGA Championship (one of the 4 major golf tournaments of the year) last week.  He turns 51 in June...and no one that old has ever won a major golf tournament.  Many have noticed he is a much calmer, more patient golfer than he's ever been.  Something was different about Phil.  It turns out Mickelson has been practicing relaxation, meditation and visualization techniques these last 2-3 years.  

I thought it would be interesting to look at what he implemented in his golf game and look at how we can apply it to our game in real life.  After all, it is called the game of life for a reason.  Why not work towards mastering our game by applying what Phil has to our lives as well!  

Here's a summary of what we can learn from Phil Mickelson's victory in our personal and work life:

• Proper preparation starts with a powerful mindset
• Select the club you can swing
• For the next shot, make it the best routine of the day
• If you don't see it, you cannot create it
• Make a complete swing

I'm humbled by the realization of how unwise I have been in the past as I read Proverbs 17:27. I talk about ways I can improve this area of my life to win more in life. 

So, I get a little bit vulnerable here. I share a quote from Rachel Hollis that leads me to discuss something I have done since I was a young boy - present myself larger than I really am. It's all born out of insecurity. I wonder if anyone else can relate to me?
